Clifton is one of Cincinnati's most storied urban neighborhoods, situated just north of Downtown and bordering the University of Cincinnati campus. Home to approximately 10,000 residents, Clifton blends grand Victorian and Craftsman architecture with a lively commercial district along Ludlow Avenue — an eclectic mix of locally-owned restaurants, coffee shops, and boutiques that gives the neighborhood its distinctly walkable, community-driven character.
The neighborhood is anchored by two major institutions: the University of Cincinnati to the south and the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden to the north. Burnet Woods, a 90-acre urban park and National Natural Landmark, runs through the heart of Clifton and serves as a green centerpiece for the community. These assets drive consistent rental demand from students, faculty, hospital workers, and young professionals year-round.
Clifton's housing stock ranges from stately Victorian-era single-family homes to brick apartment buildings and condominiums. The neighborhood skews heavily renter-occupied due to the UC proximity, which creates reliable investment fundamentals for landlords — low vacancy, strong tenant pool, and steady appreciation tied to the broader urban core revival.

What Owners Are Saying
Real reviews from EquityTeam’s clients & customers.
“Very reliable, responsive, transparent, and professional. I simply could not ask for more. Maintenance is great, reports are thorough and on time. I have had previous experience with another management company and the difference is night and day.”
“I had a property I couldn't sell and 'tried' to be a landlord. I wish I would have turned the property over to the EquityTeam years ago. They are professional, honest, and quick to answer any questions you have. They found me a great tenant in 7 days after listing it.”
“EquityTeam has managed my property for over a decade. The property has been vacant for less than a month in that time, which is outstanding. They do a great job of managing the tenant relationship while also taking great care of my property.”

• Monthly Management Fees: 8% to 12% of monthly rent.
• Leasing Fees: 50–100% of one month’s rent, sometimes a flat fee of around $800–$1,000.
• Lease Renewal Fees: from a flat fee of around $100 per renewal up to 6% of the total lease term’s cumulative gross rents.
• Maintenance: Some companies charge hourly rates (starting around $60–$70 per hour and up) for an internal technician, while others outsource all maintenance to local vendors and pass the vendor bill through to the owner with a slight markup. Typically, those with internal maintenance techs respond faster, do better work, and cost the owner less in the long run.
It can be hard to find these prices online since many management companies are not transparent with their pricing. EquityTeam publishes its pricing online on our Residential Property Management page.
